Guide to Listing Your Property on Portals

Listing your property on Dubai’s popular property portals can greatly enhance its visibility, but ensuring a successful listing involves more than just uploading information. From a proper CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) to strategic engagement with buyers, here’s how to make your listing stand out:

?? Start with a Proper CMA (Competitive Market Analysis)

A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is crucial to identify your property’s value in the current market. A thorough CMA evaluates key aspects—like location, amenities, and comparable listings—ensuring that you set the right price for maximum engagement. Accurate pricing not only attracts the right buyers but also positions your property competitively on platforms like Bayut, Property Finder, and others.

?? Key Documents for Listing

To ensure compliance and a smooth listing process, gather the necessary documents:

Title Deed: Proof of property ownership.

Identification: Emirates ID or passport copy.

Form A (Dubai Land Department): For listings via an agent, this form authorizes marketing.

NOC from Developer: Required for some properties, especially off-plan.

?? Choosing the Right Portals: Bayut, Property Finder, and Dubizzle

Dubai’s main portals include Bayut and Property Finder, with Dubizzle as an additional option. Here’s a brief look at each:

Property Finder: Known for high user engagement and in-depth analytics, ideal for premium properties and high-value listings.

Bayut: Easy to navigate with strong user support, Bayut appeals to a wide audience and provides market insights, making it popular for residential listings.

Dubizzle: Originally a classifieds platform, Dubizzle is cost-effective and great for rentals and budget properties but also accommodates premium listings, making it valuable for a diverse range of property types.

?? DIY Listing vs. Agency Listing

DIY Listing

If listing on your own, register on your chosen portal, upload quality images, write a compelling description, and set a competitive price using your CMA findings.

Photos: High-quality, well-lit photos of each room and unique features.

Description: Detailed yet concise; highlight key selling points and unique features.

Pricing: Use insights from your CMA to set a price that reflects market trends.

Listing Through an Agency

Working with an agency offers valuable benefits beyond listing. In Dubai, you can list with up to three agents or opt for exclusive representation. Leap Ventures leverages a network of 5,000+ brokers and CRM tools to provide your property with extensive reach and targeted buyer engagement.

Mortgage Setup and Streamlined Process

At Leap Ventures, we also facilitate the buying process by assisting prospective buyers with mortgage setup, a key step for many interested parties. This service builds trust, simplifies the purchase, and assures both the buyer and seller of a secure transaction.

?? Optimizing for Successful Viewings and Buyer Engagement

After listing, preparation for viewings and buyer engagement is essential:

Prepare the Property: Clean, organised, and well-presented. Minor staging (like fresh decor) enhances the appeal.

Flexible Viewing Hours: Arrange viewings at convenient times, especially on weekends and evenings.

Respond Promptly: Be ready to respond to inquiries swiftly. At Leap Ventures, we manage rapid follow-up through our CRM.

Guide Buyers During Viewings: Present the property’s key benefits during viewings to build confidence and rapport.

Follow-Up: Post-viewing follow-ups maintain engagement and help gauge buyer interest.

?? Commission Structures to Consider

When listing with an agency, the commission structure can vary:

Buyer-Side Commission Only: Some transactions include only a buyer-side commission.

Up to 2% Seller Commission: Commonly, sellers can allocate up to 2% commission for the selling agent to maximize agent engagement.

Net-to-Owner Pricing: In this arrangement, the price is net to the owner, and any commission is added on top, allowing the seller to know exactly what they’ll receive from the sale.
